Re: Torvalds declared: "Don't use ZFS. It's that simple."
"Nouveau drivers are for masochists"
There's a simple answer as explained by several of the gurus on #nouveau in the usual open source IRC network:
"Don't buy Nvidia products and expect them to work on Linux. Even if the drivers support your device NOW that can stop at any time without warning. Nouveau is a best-effort project and Nvidia have consistently been less than helpful whilst providing constantly moving targets for their largely undocumented APIs. Nvidia simply don't care about Linux support as it's such a tiny area of their marketplace"
In short - and this is the advice from the Nouveau team themselves - if you want it to simply work, buy AMD graphics cards/GPUs
